Borrowed Chords

Famous quotes containing the words borrowed and/or chords:

    “As a rule we develop a borrowed European idea forward, and ... Europe develops a borrowed American idea backwards.”

    “Love took up the glass of Time, and turned it in his glowing hands;
    Every moment, lightly shaken, ran itself in golden sands.
    Love took up the harp of Life, and smote on all the chords with
    might;
    Smote the chord of Self, that, trembling, passed in music out of sight.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
